Install Debian 6 "Squeeze" from a Linux LiveCD
WARNING: This script will WIPE your Xbox 360 internal harddisk (/dev/sda) and install Debian 6
If you have XeXmenu or another dashboard homebrew on that drive, you will loose it all: Follow these instructions only if you understand what you are doing.
debian_squeeze.sh will create two partitions. 1 GB swap on sda1 and the rest of the disk as a root-filesystem on sda2. Run the script as root from the a Linux LiveCD. You will need a DHCP-server on your network for this script.
How do I run it?
Click "Application > Accessories > Terminal" and type the following commands:
sudo su wget http://file.libxenon.org/free60/linux/script/debian_squeeze.sh sh ./debian_squeeze.sh
Reboot the 360 when you are told. Boot with http://file.libxenon.org/latest_kern, supply correct "root=" parameter via kboot.conf (*kboot currently only supported via xell-reloaded-testing builds), boot the kernel/system and login as user: xbox, password: xbox. Have fun :) (If you are not having fun, let us know about the errors you are experiencing.)
